URL redirect to an absolute URL (inc. query string)

Mateusz Bender

I'd like to use the Webserver Protection module to handle a very specific redirection. Basically, we're in the process of preparing a multilingual site that will handle different domains internally, but until then I'd like to create a manual redirection for a specific domain to a specific URL (with query string).

In other words, I'd like to redirect mydomain.com to mydomain.pl/?lang=en

Alas, I can't seem to be able to do that; I wanted to use the Request Redirection section and a path of "/?lang=en", but then UTM informs me that this path contains invalid characters (it doesn't like the question mark).

So, can this be done, or do I need to spin up an IIS server internally solely to redirect requests?

    Hi  

    It won't be possible to do that from GUI options. However, you can modify the /var/chroot-reverseproxy/usr/apache/conf/reverseproxy.conf and the line RedirectMatch to do this. First, configure the request redirect without ? in the path and then modify the file and edit the line. 

    Note: Please reach out to Sophos Support before trying this step if you have a licensed product. If you have a home license, feel free to try this as long as you are comfortable changing things back.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards

    Thanks for the response. I'd try that, but we do have a Sophos licence, so as per your suggestion I'll contact them first.
